Dear Friend,
Naturally, this letter will come to you as a surprise, since we have not met before,However i will
first and foremost like to introduce myself. I am Barrister Patrick Chan contacting you to kindly
assist me in the proposition below, which will be of mutual benefit to us both.
PROPOSITION
A Salvadorian, Mr. Ramirez Videurre, 66 years of age and a very prosperous farmer made a huge bank
deposit for investment in the sum of US$21.2 Million (Twenty-one Million, Two hundred thousand
United States Dollars) he named his wife Mrs. Helga Videurre as the NEXT OF KIN . I was called
upon as an Accredited Attorney to the bank to sign and endorse documents to this deposit on Mr.
Videurre?s behalf.
Unfortunately, Mr.& Mrs. Videurre were killed in the January 14, earthquake that rocked El
Salvador, killing thousands of people and 1200 others were declared missing. The bank management
now mandates me (being the lawyer that signed and endorsed the deposit papers for the deceased to
trace the family relatives of the deceased so that the fund will be released to them.
I was made to understand that they had no children. I made several efforts through the El Salvador
Probate British to contact any of the deceased family relatives, but to no avail. Failure to reach
any of the family relatives of the deceased , the only option left for the Banks Management is to
declare the deceased account dormant and revert the fund on trading and investment in the interest
of the bank. In order to avoid this development since it has so far been impossible to trace any
of the deceased family relatives. I now seek your permission and assistance to have you stand as a
distant relatives to the deceased. So that the fund can be released to you and we can use it for
our mutual benefit.
I hope you do understand my concern in this matters, that if we do not use this opportunity to
claim this fund , since the deceased relatives cannot be traced, the management of the bank will
declare the deceased account dormant and revert the fund on Trading and Investment in the
interest of the bank. For your assistance, you will be compensated adequately with (30%) of the
total sum (65%) will be my own share while (5%) will be set aside to cover any incidental expense
made both at home and abroad prior to this transaction. If you are interested in assisting me with
this matter, please send to me urgently via my EMAIL the following details below:
Your Full Name:_____________________
Your Complete Address:________________________
Name of City of Residence:________________________
Date of Birth (Day/Month/Year):__________________
Direct Telephone Number: ____________________
Mobile Number: ____________________________
Fax Number:___________________________________
Upon receiving the above details from you, I will work out every documents/proof representing you
as the deceased BONA-FIDE distant relative and when this is done, you will be contacted by the
bank for the release and collection of this fund, which will be within one week of my receiving
the above details from you .
I will meet with you in your country for disbursement after the fund might have been released to
you and also to discuss investment potentials as I will like to invest in your country with your
assistance. Be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free, as I have taken care of all
necessary modalities to enable a hitch free transaction. Kindly ensure to treat this matter in
strict privacy(Highly Confidential).
Yours Sincerely
Patrick Chan Esq.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
